Magnificent Miniatures: Techniques for Grand Houses on a Small Scale

By Susie Rogers and Kevin Mulvany

Kevin Mulvany and Susie Rogers create some of the world's most magnificent and coveted architectural miniatures. Museums and private collectors commission their beautiful work, which covers many periods and countries, and ranges from the double-horseshoe staircase that leads up to Fontainebleau to the outrageously decadent chandeliers at the Brighton Pavilion. This beautifully illustrated book captures the full breadth of Mulvany and Rogers' achievements, and reveals the techniques and materials they use to fashion their stunning recreations. Practical projects for the reader include wood paneling, parquet flooring, trompe l'oeil marbling, and much more.
